-t)ne Of the twists of the inter-
state law requires railroads to give
ten days notice of a restoration of
rates if they should happen to be re-
duce,i for any special purpose. I'm
der this provision Iowa roads which
sell excursion tickets to the Dubuque
Grand Army encampment give no
tice Of a restoration of rates before
the excursion rates go into effect.
Such is the law.
One of our BOYS in writing to
his girl remarked ..Now don't FALE
to be ready when | come. To which

different construction on it however

Now then, put a few trees around
the school houses throughout the
county. In few years you can have
an attractive home for you children
in every school house. instead Of the
present hot houses on a barren plain.
Why is it that no effort is made to
render the .e~xternals of a place
where children spend most Of their
time, in the least pleasant? A few
trees ,lnd flowers around the school
house would tend greatly to give
the child a love Of school. Do this
and cultivate a love of the beautiful
among the children. Flowers and
music will make { home pleasant,
a plac, that will linger long in MEM
cries halls, will it not do the same
with the school.

every man to see to it that he ex-
